I think it's total crap that half the country supports the lying, corrupt sack of shit in the White House only because he's the Candy Man.

What do I care? I still have my job, my government subsidies, etc. The stock market is for rich people who vote for Romney. Vote Obama!

If it didn't happen on US soil, or it hasn't actually affected them personally in a negative way, it didn't happen.

We could pick up a conversation from 5 months ago that you believe was too incoherent to respond to, or we could move on with ours lives instead... even Answers in Genesis admits that these arguments are not proven at this time, but I happened to make them before I read that particular post. So I was wrong on my arguments.

I know that, but if I say anything I'm a woman-hater because I really think it's bad for their mental health to murder their children.

[quote who="Uvah" reply="10" id="3270124"]I usually do. Been keeping up on the Voyager's voyage (pun intended) since they were launched in '77. The pics they sent back fron Uranus and Neptune are still the only ones of both gas giants and the Voyagers being the only probes ever to reach them. We should get some good ones from New Horizons on its way out to Pluto. Last report said New Horizons was somewhere between Jupiter and Saturn. Wonder what they'll do now that Pluto has five

I hate that I can't share about abortion without seeming like I must not know what I'm talking about, just because I'm a man. Women, you have secured this right. God help us.

[quote who="OrionM42" reply="29" id="3268865"]Quoting Trojasmic, reply 5 I knew the next game would be called Game X. Sounds cool! It's an MMORPG about dinosaurs in space. Beg to differ. Game X actually is short for Game Unknown. It's going to be a game Full of Unknowns, so therefore, for example: o When playing, you'll never really know what you are doing; &n

We are a big enough niche to keep Stardock in business, and other indies, but not big enough for the big names to care about, because their next Call of DoTheSameThingAgain is going to sell. Because Mom and Dad know that you liked the last 7, so they can get you that for Christmas this year. You'll be so surprised. And heaven forbid you don't have the newest Madden game - the players change every year, you know!

What I don't understand is why the developers are selling out in this environment. They probably stand to gain a lot more money should they make a great product and bring it to the market themselves.

[quote who="Major Stress" reply="20" id="3268896"]Dawn of War 1 it can be said is a rip of Warcraft/Starcraft (Which is a rip of CnC). Right down to its UI. Which is strikingly similar to Starcrafts UI. Despite that, being a Warhammer fan i loved the DoW1 series. I also liked the DoW2 series. Mainly for their SP campaigns. Though you are correct. The CnC influence is quite obvious. It is also obvious in Company of Heroes as well. Of course if an indie company makes an innovative fi

Why would you pay them back? The whole point of paying it forward is to give to someone else, not back to the person who gave to you.

Make the switch to board games. You're begging for it. www.boardgamegeek.com Real games vs. real gamers. Yes, they exist on computers as well, but there's just something about staring across the table at another gamer while you're playing, as opposed to staring at a screen.

There is an exception for if a private citizen looks through your stuff, legally or illegally, and then alerts the government to it being illegal - the government can then go search, because they have probable cause to search for those illegal things. Hence, if the site you upload to screens things, then a private, non-government entity is searching it - if illegal things are found by them, it is not illegal for the government to search behind them.
